Abstract

During the elementary school years, children undergo important developmental changes. They become more logical and their attention gets more adaptable. This age span coincides with the time frame in which children develop an understanding of mental states and processes. In particular, , young children acquire the ability to put together their conceptual knowledge of intention and false belief (Astington, 1991; Chandler & Hala, 1994). Piaget was of the opinion that the children progress starts with by being cognitively self-centred i.e., children cannot know that their own perspective may differ from those of others. Even after children who become aware of their perspective differences, they only gradually acquire skill with age in their various perspective and capabilities (Flavell, 1992; Shanz, 1983).
